She is lovely Rob 
Today I drove back the 550miles from SSUK. It was a great weekend with a few of the usual suspects in attendance. There may have been a few more retrobikers I didn't recognise. Brian and myself drove down on Friday, met up with Velo, Gil and Si. Great weekend and a really nice technical type course. I did a few laps in the 6 hour race as well.
Will see what pics I have and post them up tomorrow.

Re:
That was a brilliant weekend that today I am recovering from. Only did two laps but that was not an uncommon number so I'm pleased and I finished instead of my usual did not complete. Loads of silly tomfoolery including Jamie grinning like an eejit in the mini bike racing. Some great bikes at the event including those Stooge 29ers one of which I had a wee go on, very nice but still beyond my piggy bank. I loved the course, it was just like my local trails be it with bigger hills, only crashed once and a tree fell over the course a little under a hundred yards behind me with that distinctive splintering sound, the woods must've trembled at the awesomeness of single speed. Two beer stops per lap, very civilised, though the juke box in the woodland bar seemed stuck on Death Metal Some of the prizes such as frames were awesome, a Titanium Travers was one by a fella who couldn't be at the prize giving but had recently had a cancer op so by unanimous approval they said they'd make sure he got it, respect !
Brians bike was its usual mad but impressive drum braked steed but it paled in comparison to this engineering student who'd raced on his entirely home made carbon framed monster crosser. Brave but technically brilliant young fella.
Most important point for me though is don't skimp on the thermal undies when camping, I wore most of my wardrobe most of the weekend, it was Baltic, especially at night.
Brilliant Weekend !!!!!!
